Presumably this will be more than one aerotow unless
the Germans have perfected in flight refuelling for
Wilgas.

On November 9, 2004 a team started at Porta Westfalica
in Germany for a
World-record flight, by which a glider will be towed
over 11.900 km from
Porta Westfalica in Germany to Naua Naua lodge in Namibia
in Africa. On this
flight Kimberly Janes Marx 'the black Baroness' flies
the Wilga D-EWBS which
is used as tower-tugger for the two-seat glider D3281.
A report about this
flight is at their website: http://www.f-schlepp.de.vu
(this site is in
German).
